Francesca Pascale speaks to Belve by Francesca Fagnani. On his wife Paola Turci: «Our first stolen photos? Made by someone close to Salvini who wanted to give him the votes of Forza Italia”
“I could never judge a deputy of the Republic.” Words and music by Francesca Pascale, ex-partner of Silvio Berlusconiquestioned by Francesca Fagnaniabout Marta Fascinathe last partner of the former prime minister who passed away a year ago.
But political correctness crumbles immediately afterwards: «Berlusconi was lucid, he never did certain foolish things with me».
The theme is the “symbolic wedding” between Berlusconi and Fascina after the end of the relationship with Pascale. One of the many topics addressed in the long exclusive interview given to Beastswhose last episode of the season will be broadcast this evening in prime time on RaiDue.
Precisely on the subject of marriages, Fagnani reminds Pascale of one of her statements: «She said that she asked Berlusconi every day to marry her». «Not at all – she replies – I have never felt the desire to get married, also because then maybe he would marry me and it would be fake and frankly rather than fake, nothing is better».
Pascale then said the fateful “yes” to singer-songwriter Paola Turcimarried in the municipality of Tuscany, in Montalcino, in July 2022. A marriage that came after the official status of their relationship, anticipated however by some paparazzi shots which according to Pascale hid a political plan: «They were made by a person from Forza Italia close to the sovereignist area, who has always particularly hated me».
It’s not enough, Pascale explains: «The photographers? They were mwent to a person very close to Matteo Salvini who wanted to give the entire Forza Italia package to Salvini. I tolerated this very badly. There was a very specific plan to make me a problem to be solved and therefore she followed me and they broke the rules of morality to hurt me.”
The images published in the magazines were the prelude to the official end of the story with Berlusconi: “Did she just feel violated, or also liberated?”, asks Fagnani. Pascale’s response is strong: “I felt violated.”
